I have been painting my whole house the last few weeks. My living is summer pudding,which is a dark plum color. (one wall) and Sulfolk tan,which to me is a sage green. The summer pudding is valspar brand that I got from lowes at 26 dollars a gallon. the suffolk tan is the walmart paint.
I prefer the Walmart brand over the high end paint. It was awful to work with, and was really like a summer pudding.
I still have several rooms to paint and haven't decided on the colors, I say that is a good idea just purchase the smallest amount and try it in the room. Also when using the darker colors it is a must to use a tinted primer first. Have fun! |
